The Blades remain in the hunt for a Championship top-two place following Tuesday night’s win.
Sheffield United remain in the hunt for a Championship top-two place following their 2-0 win over Brentford on Tuesday night.
The three-horse race for the automatic promotion titles remains as tight as ever with the home straight fast approaching and the Blades did their bit against the Bees at Bramall Lane.
Oliver Norwood scored a penalty in the 26th minute of the game but his side suffered a setback when Gary Madine was sent off on 35 minutes for a late challenge on Ezri Konsa.
Sheff Utd not only hung on despite a numerical disadvantage but went on to score a second, David McGoldrick heading in from close range with six minutes to go in the game.
Following the game, John Egan took to Twitter to respond to a Blades tweet and added his own thoughts:
Some fans responded to the five-word tweet on the social media platform:
Leeds United triumphed 3-0 at Reading on the same night, putting them top, while Norwich City host Hull City at Carrow Road at Wednesday night, just two points separating the three teams as things stand.
One game this weekend is likely to have a huge impact on the top-two race – Leeds hosting the Blades at Elland Road.
